There will be no single host for the 60th annual Tony Awards honoring the best of the Broadway season.

Instead, 60 stars — including "Color Purple" producer Oprah Winfrey — will serve as presenters when the winners are announced June 11 during a three-hour show to be televised by CBS (8 p.m. EDT) from Radio City Music Hall.

"The 60th anniversary show is bigger than just one host," Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner, the show's executive producers, said Tuesday. "So we have put together a lineup of 60 stars from the stage to lead our celebration."
